We have our first look at some of the characters from “Thor: Love and Thunder” — including Natalie Portman in a Thor-style outfit.
‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ T-shirt revealed
Matt Ramos, an entertainment journalist for Complex magazine, tweeted a photo of himself in a new T-shirt that has “Thor: Love and Thunder” on the front.
The shirt shows Thor (Chris Hemsworth) at the center of the shirt. But Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) as Thor also appears on the shirt. She’s dressed in Thor-like Asgardian armor. Lastly, we see Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) on the shirt. too.
This is our first real look at Portman in the Thor role, which she was revealed to take on when the film was first announced. As I wrote for the Deseret News, Marvel announced at the 2019 San Diego Comic-Con event that Portman’s Jane would take on the role as Thor in the new film.
- “I always had hammer envy,” Portman said at the event, according to Vulture.
In the Marvel comic books, Foster became Thor after the original Thor was off somewhere fighting Gorr the God Butcher. Thor had lost his hammer at the time after a battle with Nick Fury, according to Marvel Database.
- Foster became Thor after she had been diagnosed with breast cancer, which could not be cured by magic. However, becoming Thor allowed her to live longer in the Thor role, as I explained for the Deseret News.
